Trump did pretty well considering he had to debate both Biden and Wallace

The question about Trump’s taxes was particularly revealing since that story was intentionally released by the NYT just prior to the debate. It was a tactic designed to hurt Trump and Wallace was happy to use it. In effect he was a pawn in then NYT’s scheme to get Trump.

For that alone, Fox should fire him.

Here is a Wallace interjection I remember:

Trump was talking about the BIG DEMOCRAT cities with increasing crime.

WALLACE INTERJECTS: “But Tulsa and Ft Worth are run by REPUBLICANS and their crime is also increasing”

What were some of the other specific interruptions done by WALLACE that favored Biden??? Please post.

Did we watch the same debate?

Trump was on message for the stupid 2 minutes he had

He was throwing Biden off whatever game he had

If Biden can’t handle Trump, how can he handle Xi, Putin, NK Fatboy or whomever?

Biden was a disaster

When the elite and Follywooders come down on Wallace, his job status may be shaky.

All the traps the left set for Trump in 2020 were brought up.

biden was reading from a paper.
Trump lied and downplayed
Trump acted late
Trump is a racist (Charlottesville)
Trump dissed the military
Trump wouldn’t stop “right wing” violence
Trump paid only $750
Trump is a climate arsonist

All about Trump. Nothing about biden.
I’m glad Trump was his usual self and showed that he is the Alpha Male in the room, while biden was a whining incompetent old fool.

I have been saying all year that the left inflated cv19 so they could blame it on Trump, that they organized, and promoted the riots so they could blame Trump, they allowed the fires to burn so they could blame them on Trump.

At least one more major crisis is planned for October. And will be blamed on Trump.

Why did Trump agree to having Wallace as the moderator in the first place?

I believe he realized that early on but successfully planted seeds to biden’s base (biden has abandoned you) and the middle (biden loves the New Green Deal and is a socialist).

I agree - Trump beat the crap out of him. No, it wasn’t pretty, the left will say “un-presidential” - I call it REAL. PDJT was confronted with all the propaganda garbage the left could throw at him, all their lies, repeated and supported by the ‘moderator’.

SO PDJT does what he does, comes out fighting, not taking any garbage from anyone. He saw Wallace was biased and called him out, at which point the correct thing to do is say what you have to say and ignore the attempt to control him.

Wallace was a disgrace. That said, PDJT got Biden to surrender on many issues that the left is not going to like - he practically abandoned their causes in front of the whole nation.

It was beautiful, PDJT accomplished exactly what he wanted. The media is never going to be fair to him so why bother?

Here is my recap of Chris Wallace's performance at the infamous Republican Primary Debate on the Fox New Channel in August 2015:


This is what the Fox moderators stole from the candidates and the viewers on Thursday night. They usurped the role of rebuttal and made the candidates individually argue their positions with themselves instead of the other candidates. And then knowing this was going to be the format, they staged meaningless personal questions that had no viable rebuttal opportunities from the other candidates.

What candidate is going to interject in the middle of a crude mysogeny question? What candidate is going to rebut an "any word from God" question? What candidate is going to jump into Megyn Kelly's question to Jeb Bush that "your brother's war was a mistake" or the Bush dynasty question?

There were a half-dozen questions where one candidate was asked to attack another candidate.

With questions like that, how can we truly see the positions of each candidate? When the questions are lowball and undeserving of the stature of Governors, Senators, and business leaders, then why should we take seriously the fallout from such a farce.

Apparently, Wallace learned nothing from that experience.

Trump isn’t going to be “presidential” he was going to be bomb thrower and that is exactly what he did.

He got Biden to surrender his leftist kook base, it was amazing. He basically got Biden on island of zero support, it was genius

The left isn’t talking about that, they don’t want the true believers to stay home on election day
